Chapter 241 240: Too Late
BANG!
The Giant Seal smashed forward. Its five types of Dao Patterns seemed to evolve into five great dragons, charging toward the curtain of swords.
BOOM!
The Giant Seal struck with an overwhelming aura, one that even Profound Pill Realm Cultivators would not dare to face head-on.
A solemn look appeared in the eyes of every Beiming Sword Sect disciple on the Flying Boat.
"Thank goodness Senior Brother Beichen is here. Otherwise, we'd stand no chance against Ling Fei." A lingering fear filled the hearts of these young men.
Profound Spirit Treasures were simply too rare.
Ordinary geniuses could never hope to possess one.
Only a handful of top-tier prodigies might receive one as a gift from their elders.
Of course, some with heaven-defying luck might occasionally find one in ancient ruins.
But such cases were exceedingly rare.
BANG, BANG!
In the Void ahead, thunderous sounds echoed continuously.
Beichen Yu relentlessly urged the Giant Sword to slash at Ling Fei.
The Giant Sword sometimes transformed into a Sword Sea and other times unleashed Sword Qi like a downpour of arrows. Its power was astonishing.
Because of this, Ling Fei had no choice but to fully activate the Five Elements Seal to protect himself while simultaneously striking back at the incoming attacks.
Both the Sword Shield and the Five Elements Seal were Profound Spirit Treasures, and they required immense amounts of Essence Qi and Soul Power to wield.
Beichen Yu was a Profound Pill Realm expert, so his Essence Qi reserves were indeed vaster than Ling Fei's. However, his Soul Power was relatively weaker.
As a result, after wielding the treasure for so long, he was also beginning to feel the strain.
Although Ling Fei was only at the Celestial Spirit Realm, his Soul Power was immense. He was able to gradually draw out the Power of Inscription from within the Five Elements Seal. The five kinds of Inscriptions would then howl, forming a Five Elements Attack that periodically shot toward Beichen Yu, or they would form a protective screen to shield Ling Fei.
Because of this, Beichen Yu had been completely unable to harm Ling Fei in the slightest.
"Damn it! How can a mere Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivator like Ling Fei keep using that Five Elements Seal for so long?" Beichen Yu's brows furrowed tightly.
This was beyond his imagination.
In his mind, a few exchanges should have been enough to exhaust Ling Fei's Essence Qi and mental energy.
Then, wouldn't killing him be as easy as turning over his palm?
But now, it was clear that Ling Fei's strength far exceeded his expectations.
After all, even he was starting to feel his mental energy failing, to the point where he could barely control the Sword Shield!
'My Soul Power can still sustain the Five Elements Seal, but I've already used up seventy percent of my Gang Qi. If this keeps up, it won't be to my advantage.' At this moment, Ling Fei also felt his Gang Qi was running low. If he continued, even if he defeated Beichen Yu, he wouldn't be able to defeat the other twenty-four disciples from the Beiming Sword Sect.
Moreover, more people were continuously rushing to the area.
By then, it would be difficult for him to escape unscathed.
'I have to kill them all in one fell swoop.' A glint flashed in Ling Fei's eyes. He no longer planned to drag this out; otherwise, the situation would spiral out of his control.
YIYI!
With a flicker of his eyes, Ling Fei signaled to Yiyi on his shoulder.
YA!
Yiyi's eyes flashed as it looked at Ling Fei, ready to follow his command at any moment.
"Attack with me. We'll crush this man and then take the opportunity to kill him," Ling Fei said.
YA!
Yiyi nodded, a fiery light glinting in the little creature's Gemstone-like eyes.
From its eager look, it seemed to have long wanted to teach these bullies, who relied on their power to oppress others, a lesson.
"Attack!" Ling Fei ordered.
YA!
With a flick of its little paw, Yiyi immediately injected Essence Qi into the Five Elements Seal.
Upon receiving this infusion of Essence Qi, the Five Elements Seal immediately flared with brilliant light.
"Five Elements Seal, crush mountains and rivers!" A low voice escaped Ling Fei's lips as a vast amount of Soul Power from his mind poured into the seal.
The next moment, the Five Elements Seal flashed and expanded to a hundred zhang in size. Like a great mountain, it carried the Five Elements Power as it smashed toward the Sword Shield ahead.
BANG!
The Giant Seal flashed, its aura like a rainbow, and directly shattered all the sword light emanating from the Sword Shield.
Then, Beichen Yu felt a terrifying aura pressing down on him.
"Not good!" Beichen Yu's expression changed drastically. Originally, his own aura had diminished significantly, and Ling Fei's had also weakened.
Under these circumstances, he never expected Ling Fei to suddenly erupt with such a terrifying aura.
Caught completely off guard, Beichen Yu could only watch as the Sword Shield was sent flying.
Then, a terrifying wave of air slammed into him, sending the Flying Boat he was on flying backward.
WHOOSH!
But just as his Flying Boat was knocked away, the Five Elements Seal took the opportunity to fly over, poised to crush down like a mountain.
"Retreat, quickly!" In a panic, Beichen Yu hastily flashed off the Flying Boat.
The other disciples of the Beiming Sword Sect also flew off, their faces filled with terror.
BANG!
Just as everyone flew away, the Five Elements Seal descended.
BOOM!
A huge explosion rang out. The mountain-like Five Elements Seal directly crushed Beichen Yu's Flying Boat into splinters.
The earth trembled, and cracks spread out in every direction.
It was not hard to imagine that if Beichen Yu and the others had retreated even a fraction slower, they would have been turned into meat paste.
Even so, a terrifying shockwave still swept out in all directions.
The geniuses of the Beiming Sword Sect who had just escaped were caught in this blast. Their bodies shuddered, and they were sent flying like kites with their strings cut.
PFFT!
One by one, the geniuses spat out blood, their Treasure Swords falling from their grasp.
CRACK!
Liu Chen was hit so hard that his ribs snapped.
He was only at the Small Primordial Pill Realm and had been sent here only because he knew Ling Fei.
Under such an impact, he was naturally unable to resist.
Even Beichen Yu's blood and qi roiled within him, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. Cracks had even appeared on his Spirit Tier Soft Armor.
If not for that armor, he would likely be on the brink of death from severe injuries by now.
"How can Ling Fei unleash such terrifying Power!" The disciples of the Beiming Sword Sect were all baffled.
They were all Profound Pill Realm Cultivators and clearly understood how difficult it was to activate various Spiritual Treasures.
Generally speaking, it was already remarkable for a Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivator to be able to activate a Profound Spirit Treasure twice.
Yet Ling Fei had used his to defeat Beichen Yu, who was also wielding a Profound Spirit Treasure.
How heaven-defying was that!
Many Celestial Spirit Realm experts couldn't even activate a Profound Spirit Treasure at all!
'Activating a Profound Spirit Treasure requires a massive amount of Essence Qi to support its Inscription Divine Techniques. However, if one has powerful Soul Power, they can rely on that Soul Power alone to activate the inherent Power of Inscription within the Inscriptions to fight enemies. Ling Fei must have abnormally strong Soul Power to be able to continuously use this treasure.' Beichen Yu thought for a moment and figured it out. He then looked up and muttered, "We all underestimated Ling Fei!"
All of this was because they had underestimated their enemy.
If he hadn't, he wouldn't be in this situation.
"It's too late for you to understand that now." Just as a bitter expression appeared on Beichen Yu's face, Ling Fei's voice rang out.
WHOOSH!
In the Void ahead, a light flickered, and Ling Fei had already transformed into a long streak of light, flying over.
"Quick, attack!" The Beiming Sword Sect Cultivators looked tense. Many of them dragged their injured bodies, trying to get up and activate their Treasure Swords to defend themselves.
Beichen Yu also scrambled to his feet, moving his palm to summon his Sword Shield.
"Too late!" A glint flashed in Ling Fei's eyes. As his low voice sounded, his body vanished into thin air.
All the members of the Beiming Sword Sect were stunned.
"Where did he go?" Ling Fei's sudden disappearance made Beichen Yu's face sink, and a sense of unease flooded his heart.
At that very moment, a light flickered, and Ling Fei appeared behind Beichen Yu.
Immediately, he moved his large hand, transforming it into a Dragon Claw that pierced directly through Beichen Yu's heart meridian.
PAIN!
Excruciating pain flooded his mind, and Beichen Yu's face twisted in agony.
Yet, he still propped up his body and slowly turned his head to look at Ling Fei.
